NIGHTTIME LIGHTS, NIGHTTIME CLOUDS
Nighttime city clouds
Puffy altocumulus
Reflect city lights.
I stand in wonder
At man-made surreal color
But without portent.
While staring upward
I wonder within myself
Am I the only one?
Am I the only one
To stare with childlike wonder
And well past midnight?
Camera is tempting
But I resist the siren
For it is useless.
No film or sensor
Has such sensitivity
As my poignant eye.
